The Father Geek Seal of Approval is the highest ranking available to any game or product we review. It meets the requirements and approval of all three testing groups: Child, Parent, and Gamer Geeks (where applicable). The staff at Father Geek have zero say on what games are given the seal, leaving the final vote to the players. These games are true gems and are worth taking a look at, in our opinion. A game with the seal of approval means it can be played by different skill and age groups. Do give them a try with your family and friends.
